What we're about

This is a group for anyone interested in sharing their experience living in the U.S. as a young African. It is also a platform for anyone interested in making new friends and learning more about the diversity of the African culture.

The purpose of this group is to allow young professionals Africans and others to have the opportunity that they might not otherwise have to socialize together in a laid back, accepting and open setting.

A member of this group is called Young African. The group will explore the DMV area, mostly, meeting-up at museums, Jazz venues, concerts, bars, clubs, restaurants, happy hours, volunteer opportunities, charity events, live sporting events, and the like.

Please spread the word around and let make something positive comes out from this!!!

Hello everyone🤗 I know, I know, y’all probably thinking, isn’t this kind of too early to be posting? I know o😂. I am because I want to give everyone plenty plenty time to be able to come out for this event for the New Year. I noticed that we have so many members on here that we’ve never meet, so this is a very good opportunity for us to start the New Year off to get to know each other small. If it happens to snow/too cold for this event the date I have up, I will go ahead and move it to another day when the weather is not too bad. So stay tuned, I will be sending out more info about this event down the line. Hope to see atleast about 99.9% of y’all for this event😂😂😂
*We are always in need of venues that is cost effective/preferably free😊, to have our outstanding meetups, if anyone have any suggestions, please let us know.🙏🏿 Thanks
